[:uk]The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has made an amendment to paragraph 34 of the Procedure for Summoning Citizens to Military Service during Mobilization in Special Times. In particular, the deadlines for determining the date of arrival of conscripts at military recruitment offices after receiving the summons have been changed.
**Essence of the Change**:
– **Previous Version**: The second sentence of the fourth paragraph of point 34 contained the wording “is determined no earlier than the fourteenth day.” This meant that conscripts were granted a period of no less than 14 days to arrive at the designated location after receiving the summons.
– **New Version**: The wording has now been changed to “from the settlement that is the administrative center of the region, the period is determined within seven days, and from other settlements – within ten days.” This means that the arrival deadlines have been shortened and differentiated depending on the conscript’s place of residence.
**Practical Implications of the Change**:
– **For Conscripts from Regional Centers**: They must arrive at the military recruitment office within **seven days** from the moment of receiving the summons.
– **For Conscripts from Other Settlements**: They have a period of **ten days** to arrive.
**Purpose of the Change**:
– **Optimization of the Mobilization Process**: The shortening of deadlines may be aimed at accelerating the staffing of military units in the event of mobilization.
– **Consideration of Geographic Features**: The differentiation of deadlines allows for accounting the differences in the accessibility of transportation infrastructure between regional centers and other settlements.
**Conclusion**:
The amendment to paragraph 34 of the Procedure is aimed at speeding up the mobilization process and making more effective use of resources, taking into account the place of residence of the conscripts. The newly established arrival deadlines are mandatory and require citizens to pay careful attention to the summons they receive.[:]
